Goal 2.2.6•Recognize common inorganic acidsincluding hydrochloric (muriatic) acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, nitric acid and citric acid.• Recognize common bases including sodium bicarbonate, and hydroxides of sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, barium and ammonium.• Define acids and bases according to the Arrhenius theory.• Develop an understanding of the pH scale and the classification of substances therein.• Generalize common characteristics of acids and bases– pH range, reactivity with metals and carbonates (acids) or fats/oils (bases), conductivity.• Relate general household uses of acids and bases with their characteristic properties. • Explain what happens in a neutralization reaction, identifying each component substance.
